Sleepaway Girls (Whispering Pines #1) 
When I found this book at the store, I was actually in the midst of my summer holidays. So I thought, why not? I should buy a book with a really summery feel to it. And I'm so glad that I bought Sleepaway Girls. So, from the synopsis above you could already see what the story is all about! Summer Camp! There's Sam Montgomery, your average fifteen year old girl in her summer holiday. She has a best friend who apparently has found a new boyfriend and she hated feeling left out. Sam loves her, but
This book was the perfect summer, road trip on the beach type of book! Jen Calonita expressed a total different message than her other books and I just loved it!

Sam Montgomery decides to go away to Camp Whispering Pines for the summer to be a counselor in training (CIT) when her best friend, Mal, starts dating Mark. Its the first time shes ever really struck out on her own to do something that she wants (and the first time shes going to camp), and shes not really sure what to expect (shes even a little scared). But almost from the start, Sam is a great camper and a great CIT. Shes funny, popular, and she gets along great with most of the girls in her
I loved this book so much. I'm slightly disappointed that the 2nd book has nothing to do with the same characters, but I still want to read it.
Sleepaway Girls is the birth child from a combination of Disney and Nickelodeon. Cavity producing sweet, annoying moral at the end, and childish. Sam seemed almost perfect. Nice, generous, and a complete wuss. Ashley was the perfect villain--evil, cruel, mean, heartless, and so into herself. But what was so funny to me was that in the end they start to become friends. Turns out Ashley was just jealous and Sam forgave her--shocker isn't it? Sam needed to get a backbone and fight against Ashley.
I don't normally review books. I just don't know how and I'm really just lazy. This book though deserves one. It is so good. Have you ever had a friend gush about how good a book is and then you read it and you're like I liked it but it's not that great? That's what I thought this book was going to be like. It so wasn't. Three pages in and I already loved it. It's so real and you just can't help but get caught up in it. You're rooting for couples and for the characters to be confident and go for

Description In Favor Of Books Sleepaway Girls (Whispering Pines #1)
When Sam's best friend gets her first boyfriend, she's not ready to spend the summer listening to the two of them call each other "pookie." Sick of being a third wheel, Sam applies to be a counselor-in-training at Whispering Pines camp in the New York Catskills. But what she doesn't realize is that it's not going to be all Kumbaya sing-alongs and gooey s'mores. If Ashley, the alpha queen of Whispering Pines, doesn't ruin Sam's summer, then her raging crush on the surfer-blond and flirtatious Hunter just might. At least she has playful Cole, who's always teasing her, but is oh-so-comfortable to hang out with, and the singular gang of girls that become fast friends with Sam-they call themselves the Sleepaway Girls.Particularize Books Toward Sleepaway Girls (Whispering Pines #1)

I've been at a camp just two times in my life and I didn't like it so much. But I actually really enjoyed reading this book ;-) It was pretty funny and I like the story. Sleepaway girls make me think that being a counselor-in-training at a summer camp could be really great! <3When I found this book at the store, I was actually in the midst of my summer holidays.
